Title: I'm getting a Pullip... I think.
Post by: BornAUnicorn on January 30, 2012, 01:40:40 PM

Ok so I have seen these girls around the net for years and never really cared for them, and then last week I got this sudden feeling that I just HAD to get one  :P  But I'm debating over if I should start off with one or get two at the same time due to the fact that shipping to Sweden is a lot.. hmm! (I all ready have the one picked out though)


I have read some stuff about their bodys staining easily, does this apply to their stock as well? I mean will I get a ruined body straight out of the box?


Also, is it like a must to put them on an obitsu body? I'd like to pose my doll around but I heard that it's hard with their normal bodies.. can they sit down without tipping over? (the heads look pretty heavy)


I appreciate any help here  ^^;

Yep, their stock can stain them in some cases. My Mir came out of her box with light staining, and I know there's a Dal who is always badly stained out of her box (but I can't recall who it is). I know there's a way to treat the clothes that helps keep them from staining your dolls further, but I can't remember what it is.

Edit; Missed your second question. xD
All three of my Pullips are still on their stock bodies. I have no trouble posing them or having them sit down without falling, but I know Ala has a weak forearm and can't hold one of them up. When leaning against something man can stand pretty decently too. But I've never worked with an Obitsu body before so I can't tell you if that's a better choice.

Our Pullip has been left with her regular body and she can sit down without falling over :) but we only have one so she might be a fluke!

I have heard of putting them on Liv bodies as well, especially when there isn't a color match with an Obitsu.

I have my Hello Kitty on an Obitsu and Latte on her original body.  I like the obitsus better, there's more flexibility and I like their tummies  :)  I may eventualyl switch Latte as well

None of my dolls has stains so far. Obitsus are not a must, it's a matter of personal taste.
 
But now I am curious, whoch doll did you choose?

I'm getting Cinciallegra and also decided to get a Princess Ann so she would not get lonely :) (Ann is is getting a new wig ASAP, the one she has is so ugly lol)
